Which tasks are exposed

Risk applies to individual tasks—not to a person or an entire occupation.

Task	Risk
Cleaning, joining and preparing data	51%
Creating standard reports and visualizations	44%
Forming conclusions and checking causality	23%
Diagnostics using fault codes and telemetry	41%
Planning scheduled maintenance	45%
Physical repair of a non-standard fault	30%
Collecting telemetry and preparing shift reports	48%
Forecasting load and consumption	42%

What the score means

The score reflects process repeatability, data digitization, automated verification, the physical environment and the economic incentive to deploy technology.

The index reflects potential technology exposure of occupational tasks and is not the probability that a particular person will lose their job.

AI exposure

The share of cognitive, textual, visual or analytical work that current AI systems can technically assist with or perform.

29%

Robotics

The extent to which robots, autonomous machinery and computer vision can perform physical operations in a prepared environment.

44%

Routine work

The share of operations that repeat, follow stable rules and produce a predictable result.

46%

Digitalization

How much of the input, workflow and output already exists in digital form.

41%

Business incentive

The economic incentive to automate based on task volume, labor cost, frequency and implementation cost.

42%

Human moat

Protection created by accountability, trust, empathy, licensing, negotiation and unpredictable real-world environments.

71%

Task map

AI replaces ↔ AI augments

Each task is positioned by AI capability and the degree of human involvement still required.

Why technology can change this work

predictive diagnostics identify likely failure points in advance
AI automatically drafts analyses, finds correlations and explains standard deviations
smart grids automatically balance generation and demand
AI forecasts load and output
robots and drones inspect hazardous assets

What protects the occupation

physical diagnosis, repair and post-intervention equipment validation
choosing the right question and checking causality rather than correlation alone
a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
critical-infrastructure accountability
physical work and emergency restoration
system decisions under grid instability
